Sacrifice: Time of Mine
Chapter 84: Horny Mettany Against the Leaf Humming Blade

"Master, you're here!?" Van had a paled face. Emotions were stirring chaotically inside of him. When he experienced the pressure Mettany gave, he became fearful. They knew of the incident in which she defeated the genius, Prince Harold.

But at the moment this woman charged at them, his master came out of nowhere. This shouldn't be a coincidence. Meaning, Van's master was watching him this whole time!

'I showed an embarrassing side to master!' this was the reason he became paled but also relief, 'But at least this woman will finally learn her place.'

"Greetings, Uncle Yown." Jhin bowed and Van followed, "Greetings, Master."

"Hm" the Leaf Humming Blade named Yown while having the surname of Anzteran nodded. Jhin called him uncle to show closeness and respect. They were both Plant Elementalist. There was no way they don't have the same bloodline.

"Leaf Humming Blade?" Mettany scoffed. When she charged earlier, she saw a palm coming at her. This was not Yown's battle style as the master who is called the Leaf Humming Blade, specialized at Projectile Elesps.

Meaning, he was holding back a lot. This might be a form of respect to the Guild Master.

"Mettany, do not cross the line. If not for your Guild Master, I could've killed you on the spot." Yown said calmly, but inside, he was having a dilemma.

'Good thing, I'm watching over Van to help him catch Avion Teller. This idiot didn't know that he's still too weak! If only the noble's image is non-existent, I could've healed these three on the spot.'

"Please, Master Yown, I am not the offender here." Mettany had to calm herself. This person is not to be trifled with.

She was only relying on the image of her head and Avion's enormous aura nearby. She couldn't contend with a Rank Cee, much less from a master.

"Are you saying, we, nobles beating a few nameless commoners could be called an offense?" Master Yown said arrogantly that incited anger from the nearby commoners.

Too hateful!

Hearing this, Mettany knew that she couldn't get through this using words. She needed to take action and force them.

In the same rank, there are still differences. If Streson and Houie joined forces against this Master Yown, they wouldn't even last ten minutes before they're defeated or even killed. Meanwhile, if the Guild Master were to use his full strength, this Master Yown could only stretch his neck to offer his head.

That was why Mettany contending with the Guild Master couldn't be imitated by just anyone!

Even that strength she had which was defeated by the Guild Master's Body Strengthening was not there, how could she win against this Leaf Humming Blade?

Mettany became hesitant. Although these nobles couldn't afford to offend the Guild Master, the giant noble families behind them easily could. Even though Rank Bih Elementalists could eliminate a single Rank Cee Elementalist easily, they are not invincible. These families don't have any Rank Bih or else, they could become a Royal Family but they could still bring out ten Rank Cee experts to fight against the lone Guild Master.

If she was killed, the Guild Master wouldn't just risk his life and take revenge. Meaning, at any moment Mettany chose to attack, it could turn into a life and death battle. She could die and even complicate the Guild Master who raised her up even after her death.

Saving these three was not worth it.

"....." Mettany became silent, 'But still!' she gritted her teeth.

After a pause, she ran.

She ran towards the Rank Cee master!

The crowd was stupefied before they erupted into cheering. Going against a noble? So what? They are ignorant, please teach them a lesson!

"Hmph!" Master Yown snorted and only used Body Strengthening again. This increased his mobility, power, and defense. The basics of the basics.

Mettany struck using her fist. It was directed towards Master Yown's face but upon impact, it hit a palm instead.

"You think you can go against a Rank Cee without using any elesps? I know who you are, having a rare Conditioned Elesk. You are worth two Rank Dih Elementalists, but that's not enough!" Master Yown only put up one palm, taking the barrages of fist Mettany was giving.

Her glasses were even cracking from the impact alone. Every area she directed her fist, it would only meet a single palm before losing all its force behind it.

This is the true power of a Rank Cee Elementalist. If it was either Streson or Houie, they would need to focus on defending and even going toe to toe with a Rank Dih.

However, Mettany wasn't discouraged.

'I don't care about the consequences. I just don't want Avion's smile to disappear!'

Master Yown, the Leaf Humming Blade began feeling the pressure, 'She's getting faster and stronger.' he inwardly exclaimed.

The crowd's cheering became louder as they saw the Rank Cee Elementalist finally used two palms!

From the very beginning, this commotion was attracting nearby people's attention and curiosity. The crowd that was just formed by a group of Riskers was now filled with spectators unrelated to the fight.

.....

"Burrrp!" Avion burped as he patted his belly, satisfied, "Guild Master, I'm fine now." he said before realizing that there was no one beside him.

He was stunned at first before remembering that the Guild Master said something to him while he was eating, "What was it?..." he racked his head hard. He was too engrossed in eating earlier that he didn't quite hear what the Guild Master said.

Meanwhile, light footsteps entered the shop. Other customers who were relieved that the Guild Master was finally gone escaped, sensing that things would get messy there.

"Was it... careful.... be careful?" Avion muttered without noticing the presence behind him, "Did he say something about being careful?"

The shop-owner and staff had sad expressions seeing the men behind Avion, wishing that there wouldn't be destroyed properties in the process.

"Ah!" Avion pointed his finger up in realization, "I should drink water! Yes, Guild Master is too kind."

"That's not it!" one of the staff retorted as a net fell from the above.

Avion just saw a shadow on the table before he turned around to see what was above him-

"Caught him!" the men rejoiced.

Even the show-owner and the staff felt relieved. They were glad that it went smoothly.

"Ah! they got first!" the others who were outside the shop slapped their foreheads.

They were waiting outside the shop and saw that the Guild Master walked out, leaving Avion there who was too focused on his meal. Everyone feared that the Guild Master would come back so they hesitated.

But after seeing that the target had just finished eating, they got anxious that he would leave. They were aware of Avion Teller's capability to escape.

While the two men who couldn't resist the temptation first were celebrating, the people outside were being regretful.

"I knew it! I said we should go in!"

"Then why didn't you go first?!"

A pair of Riskers were fighting each other when a third one asked;

"What's happening there?"

One of the pair answered with irritation, "Huh!? You didn't know that we are here, trying to capture Avion Te....." he paused.

"Avion Te who?" Avion Teller frowned.
